60 minutes to live…

A clock face, ten minutes from midnight

Tim Sackton

If you had an hour to live what would you do? Would you call all of your loved ones to tell them you love them? Would you make peace with yourself and forgive those that did you wrong? Would you pray for the whole 60 minutes? Would you ask God to forgive you for all of your sins? Would you spend time with family and friends? Would you go bungee-jumping because you never did? Would you spend the whole hour with your wife and your kids? Would you buy a motorcycle? You always wanted a Harley. Would you puff-puff-pass? Rest in peace, Bob Marley. Would you listen to a CD, or watch a DVD? Would you read the Bible for an hour, or would you watch TV? Would you eat everything the doctor told you not to eat? Drink a lot of soda, eat a lot of sweets? Would you go to the bar and get drunk? Would you roll up some weed and smoke a blunt? Would you get on a bike and just ride? Would you get in your car and just drive? Would you go to the mall and just shop? Would you shop until your heartbeat stops? Would you go work out at the gym? Would you go to the beach and take a swim? Would you teach the world how to sing? Would you buy your wife a new wedding ring? Would you get on a plane just to fly? You got a minute to live before you die. Would you teach your only son how to talk? Would you take your dog for a long walk? Dear God, I got a second to live. This my last breath, God, hope you forgive.
